Seeking Religious Literacy – a self-paced course for individuals and groups who yearn to be pleasantly surprised and informed about religious worldviews all around us – is now open for registration!
In this public, non-credit bearing course, faculty in their field curate the lectures and SU students and alumni present them - The course is open to all!
Seeking Religious Literacy is an essential good in the world today.
The course is created by The Center for Ecumenical and Interreligious Engagement at Seattle University with the Parliament of the World's Religions. It is a self-paced journey to increase awareness of the human quest for meaning across religious worldviews around the world.
In five modules, the course is a journey through accessible multi-media content, including lectures, podcasts, and first-hand accounts from individuals around the world. The course's colorful design covers the arc of a 24-hour-period, from twilight to twilight, and concludes with a student assessment.
The course is for individuals or can be easily facilitated by groups! For group-rates or any questions at all, contact the creators at CEIEcourses@seattleu.edu
As in the past, so also in our day, with the wisdom and humanity of our religious traditions, we want to be a stimulus for a renewed educational activity that can advance universal fraternity in our world.
